Sarah Lockard is the “CEO and Publisher” of AroundMainLine.com in Philadelphia, and yesterday Philadelphia magazine ran an email she sent to area restaurants in which she offered them a “VERY innovative” and “exciting” opportunity: to host her family dinner on Christmas Eve in exchange for coverage on her site.

That’s just awful.

Ah, the old give me stuff for free for “exposure” scam. I’d tell her to fuck off and then give free dinner to poor people that could really use it.

“I don’t want to see us descend into a nation of bloggers”

Too many self-important douches who are full of themselves like this woman.

This is a variant of that ol’ trick that bastards use to rip off greenhorns in the workforce. “Hey kid, build my site- I can’t afford to pay ya for it, but trust me the exposure will be great and I’ll tell my buddies about you.”
